Hi Han, This is another case were the current code can be used, and if it doesn't work then it should be fixed rather than a new function added. The structure.vectors() method is independent of the format of the structural file. Normally when I use it, the PDB file has been read in and is in the internal structure format. After reading the XYZ file, it should also be in the internal format. So the structure.vectors() user function should work on both. So if you load all the carbons as spins from the organic molecule, the CH vectors should be extractable with:
relax> structure.vectors(attached='H', spin_id='@C') The 'H' needs no '*' characters as all protons in the XYZ file are called 'H'. The internal structural object will then determine which 'H' atoms are attached to the C atoms. This is either taken from the structural file, or it uses a very basic distance based algorithm in __bonded_atom() and __find_bonded_atoms(). I have a feeling that this will work automatically.
